Can you combine more than one insert if you need to drill a longer hole? The inserts seem pretty short to me.

I had the same dilemma. Using a 30mm bolt and a cover...after drilling I found that the helicoil was long enough. You can use two but not necessary. I added red threebond "locktite". Using the recommended drill bit...ONE helicoil was suffificient for me.

I have stacked 2 inserts without a problem in the brake mount holes of my fox bike fork. Use a punch to knock the tang off the bottom of the upper insert so a bolt will thread from the upper insert to the lower.

I really do not know. I do not see why you could not. Just insert the first one to the desired depth, break off the installing tang and then insert the second one to the first one and break off the installing tang.

You will need an adapter for the short bits. They will be hard to pull out other wise.

Hi Virginia, I am afraid you have to drill two 1/4 " holes as It calls for in the instructions. Regards, Guenter

the bit is just slightly larger than the size of screw you are drilling for. If you space is tight, your chuck will probably be your biggest issue

With some models of plugs, you have to file or cut a bevel on the longs edges to get them to fully insert. Not too hard to do (use caution if trimming edge with knife of course).

If the material you are drilling the pocket into is 1/2", it's not a problem. The only problem is if the other piece you're joining to is 1/2". In that case, you can use a shorter screw, but because of the placement of the hole there's still a chance that the screw will pop through or create a bulge.

I dont c a reason why you couldn't It depends how sharp your drill bit is. :-) it isnt super thick, it isnt a big safe. I woukd start with a thin bit than increase the size making bigger holes each time.

yes, you'll have to drill the current 3/8" holes out to 1/2". it took me more time to find and chuck up my bit than to drill the holes.

I had a problem with then because the holes don't line up with the extensions, so you probably will have to drill holes in them, that's what I did...Hope this is helpful for you....

My sockets were so old they had gotten out-of-round and the inserts wouldn't fit. I straightened the sockets as well as I could and then forced the inserts in. I then took a drill with a 1/2" bit and went through the insert to take out the distortion (from being in the out-of-round socket) and it worked fine!

Doubtful. I wouldn't purchase this if I were you, the holes don't line up right, no matter if it's inserted right-left or left-right.

When I ordered them, the LONGER screws were included. Maybe you are using the wrong attachment. Try eliminating the extra RING,.

I think you can. There is more than one insert divider, so you could just put in one of them.

You can mix the placement of boxes but not extend the side of the boxes to fit a longer screw. The boxes are pre-formatted to length. However, you can take boxes out to fit in a screw driver.

You are supposed to have to lock in different position to put in your new combination. I tried it and it didn't work. I had to use bolt cutters to free. I got a different one from the same company. I used the default combination.

If you are talking about the two by the mixture screw, they are drilled but not big enough to tap a 8/32 thread. You need a #29 bit. hope this helps.

You can use one hole and make one new one. The holes are wider apart and will not line up. The 80's are garbage the 90's are certainly worth the investment. Have had one set I first purchaed over 4 years ago and they have not failed.
